yeah it seems everyone has been too busy to look at the forums. even I haven't really been in here for a while. so long I forgot how to post and started editing everything instead of making a fresh post. O.o it was not my intention.I noticed after I'd done it a few times. :/

on a brighter note i'm married now! ^_^

Just loving it! let's sit and chat a while and see if I don't make you smile .

i don't normally double post but i wanted everyone to know I just had surgery on monday. my appendix was removed with no complications but it was scary and I'm still recovering. this is not an April fools joke. but i was disappointed not to see something funny from brion as he usually does something. i made an extra effort to look just because today is April fools day actually. ;DHope to hear from everyone. i miss you lot. *hugs*

I was having login issues too. I thought my password had somehow been changed, and for some reason I wasn't getting the recovery emails, Brion ended up helping me reset it instead.But if you had login issues too Smiles then maybe I had the same issue.

Do people have discord? Would a discord server be an idea people might be into?

I understand the appeal of a Discord server, but I think it's too chaotic to keep up a thread of conversation for days or even weeks. Since everything goes into one channel, any kind of smalltalk quickly makes deeper discussions get swamped away, especially when memes are included. Whenever I open Discord and go into any of the servers I subscribed to I see "100+ new messages", so I just ignore all of them. Discord is nice to have a quick smalltalk, like IRC back in the day.

Having Disqus or something similar below each new page would be a nice compromise between Discord and a forum, because you can always choose to respond to specific comments, so there is some order in there. Also Disqus makes it easier to see which page a comment refers to.

A forum is more suited for comics where each page creates 100s of responses, like OOTS, Erfworld or GrrlPower (though the latter doesn't have one), because in those cases a lot of insightful speculative threads are created in addition to reaction threads as well.

But something like a chat thread could easily be moved into a Discord channel.
